> while playing around with overall group principal resolution during the repository login, I thought that having a principal provider that knows about the details of the user management implementation may might be a slight improvement compared to the generic default implementation as present in {{org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.security.principal.PrincipalProviderImpl}}, which just acts on the {{UserManager}} interface and thus always creates intermediate {{Authorizable}} objects.
> in order to be able to get there (without having the default principal mgt implementation rely on implementation details of the user mgt module), we would need an addition to the {{UserConfiguration}} that allows to optionally obtain a {{PrincipalProvider}}; the fallback in the default  {{PrincipalConfiguration}} in case the user configuration does not expose a specific principal provider would be the current (generic) solution.
